We have made the decision to break up an EXTRAORDINARY 1963 Topps set - the #4 Master Set on the PSA Set Registry. The 1963 set is a particularly difficult set to complete in high grade due to Topps' poor quality control in the era which resulted in considerable print defects. The large and colorful border at the bottom simultaneously lends a distinctive design element and a condition challenge, as they are extremely susceptible to chipping and wear. 

The example offered here is card #314, John Goryl, graded MINT 9. 1963 was the best year of Johnny Goryl's career, as he batted .287 for the Twins who were playing just their third season in Minnesota. Very nice centering and 3 perfect corners, with only the bottom right having a small imperfection due to the blue bottom border. Registration is terrific, which is a rarity for this set.

You won't find a nicer example of this card. And that isn't hyperbole. Not a single example ever seen by PSA has received a higher grade than the card offered here.
